Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 1009

Chapter 1009

Cyrus strode in, followed by a group carrying lavish gifts. After entering the hall, he led his men toward Colton.

“Mr. Lowe Senior, we wish you a long life and lasting prosperity. My dad asked me to pass along his regards. He’ll pay you a visit in person another day, so the two of you can have a proper talk. If there’s ever anything you freed, just let us know. As long as it’s within our power, we’ll do everything we can.

“Cyrus Leighton from the Apex Martial Academy? He even came to celebrate Mr. Lowe Senior’s birthday? Who on Linton Island has that kind of pull? What’s going on with the Lowe family?”

“I can understand the Sterlings showing up because of Miranda, but what’s Apex Martial Academy’s reason? Since when did the Lowe family become this mysterious?”

Just then, another voice cut through the noise.

“Mr. Zeke of the Zapata family has arrived. He’s brought ten spiritual medicines and three artifacts to Mr. Lowe Senior as birthday gifts.”

“Zeke Zapata? The foremost scion of Linton Island? He’s here too? You’ve got to be kidding.”

“That really is Mr. Zeke! What the hell is going on? Something’s seriously off.”

“The Lowe family… How did they suddenly rise to this level?”

The guests from various factions watched as Zeke strode in. His posture was respectful, almost like a junior greeting a senior. Their eyes widened, one after another, unable to make sense of what they were seeing.

A well-dressed woman leaned closer to Sarah, unable to hold back her curiosity.

“What’s going on? The strongest forces on Linton Island, both criminal underworld and legitimate forces, have all come to celebrate your father’s birthday. Since when did your family become this powerful? And look at their generosity. These gifts alone could support a small family for ten years.”

“I don’t know,” Sarah said, still dazed.

No one understood the state of the Lowe family better than she did. They were already on the decline, barely holding things

together.

If not for that, Colton wouldn’t have chosen today to divide the assets and have everyone go their separate ways. It was a last resort, and yet now, the Lowe family carried the presence of a top-tier powerhouse.

On all of Linton Island, what other family could bring both sides of the criminal underworld and the legitimate side to celebrate a birthday? It was unthinkable.

“If anything has changed, it’s Ashton’s return,” Sarah murmured, her gaze drifting toward her nephew.

Ashton stood there, calm as ever, as if none of this surprised him. He looked completely in control, unreadable.

“The patriarch of the Sinclair family has arrived.”

“The head of Aurora Martial Academy has arrived.”

Another wave of powerful figures arrived. Each presented Colton with expensive gifts and offered their congratulations, one after another. He went from shock to numbness.

The spacious hall quickly filled with people and became crowded.

The Lowe family had originally been just a minor family on Linton Island, and the number of guests expected for this birthday had been sparse. But now, everything had gone far beyond what anyone had imagined.

Coltun hurried to have people seat the guests, yet he couldn’t help stealing a few more glances at Ashton. He had lived over 80 years and knew exactly who these powerful figures, whom he had looked up to, had come for. His grandson was no ordinary man but downright terrifying

“Ash… I was wrong earlier,” Yves said quickly. “I owe you an apology. I even held you when you were little. Your mom and I were close back then. I had my reasons later on, so you have to understand. Don’t hold it against me.”
